How To Allow Downloads to Your Android that are Not from the Google Play Store:

Install F-Secure Freedome for Business on Android device:

From the Android home screen, choose the Settings application:

Tap on Lock Screen and Security:

Tap the slider to the right of Unknown Sources:

You will receive a prompt for you to confirm if you would like to enable the installation of applications from unknown sources (applications which do not form part of the Google Play Store). Choose OK to allow this:

When you connect to the Internet, your device is assigned an address that identifies where you are.

With Freedome, you can select a virtual location. This gives your device an address in the selected country.

For best performance, I suggest the server nearest you.

Tracking Blocker

Nearly everything you do online is tracked, and the data is stored - usually by unaccountable parties, and for indefinite periods of time.

The data is meant to target and manipulate you either immediately, or at another time in the future.

The parties can be over-zealous marketers, criminal hackers, government entities - anyone that wants to access your information.

Freedome is different to other VPNs: it blocks intrusive trackers and makes your online browsing smoother and websites load faster.

Encryption and Tunneling

Encryption and tunneling are the two, key features of the VPN.

Not only are your online activities garbled to anyone on the outside, but your traffic is also routed around or through the "public" network - tunneled away from the hostilities the internet experiences more and more every day.
